Hey Guys, been a while. :)

Anyways, I am crawling around in the bow of this boat and it is tight as hell. I started pulling out a couple of life vests. Then I found some more, and then some flares, and then a safety bag and then some more flares, and then an anchor, well you get the picture.:bonk::yes:

The killer was the porta-potti. Oh, and I left the two paddles in there.

Amazing what people compile in over the years and never know what they have.

When was the last time you looked around your boat?

Phil,

I am still trying to figure that one out also. LOL
It was stuffed way up in the bow. The way I see it, you would s&%t yourself by the time you got it out of there.
Pyrotechnics should come in hand on the 4th.

No need to water when you live in swamp!

Love the color scheme Bob. :)

Did that boat come from Merrit Island, or the Titusville area? I saw one like that at Mt Dora, this year I think.

Hey Cuda,

No, I picked it up just south of Sarasota a couple of weeks ago. Original owner, came down from Michigan about 5 yrs ago. It's in pretty good shape.

What year and power Bob? The only thing I wish our 22 had, is that stainless windshield. :(

Scott,
Fits like the garage was built for it.:yes: I must have had the right engineer.:):tongue:
Also, sent you a PM last night. Let me know if you got it.


Cuda,
It is a 97 with a 502 Mag. Previous owner had replaced the exhaust system this year. He also had new carpet made for it, not just one but two sets of carpet, so I have a backup set.:yes:

I got its look alike lil sister.... I hope when she grows up in a few years her 7.4L MPI molds in to a fine 502 MAG.... I wanted the mag option but the boat was way to clean and close to pass on.... You know if you get to picky some times you miss out!

Nice to see you back in the saddle, Bob.
Did something "else" leave the garage to make room for this? Not talking about boats, on this one.

It's a 1997 with 502 mag. Pretty well taken care of, one owner.

Hey John

Back from vacation. I'm in the process of repairing holes with George Carter. First pick of the two gel colors was not the right one.:bonk: Will try the other color next week.
Had all the snaps on the seats, carpet, and cover replaced this week. Get them back on Monday. Have a couple of minor mechanical to replace/repair, then should be ready for sea trials.
Probably won't be able to make it down to Naples til after New Years, the way things look now. Have to refill the bank after Dubai, cha-ching.:)

I'll keep in touch about a trip down there.
